if you simply don't feel like doing something, say so, firmly, calmly, but nicely. do that enough and the person stops asking. if you keep making excuses, they will keep calling. just say "no thanks", without a reason. if they ask, just say "not into it", or "don't feel like it, but thanks for the offer". sooner or later the person will get tired of being told "no".
"every society honours its live conformists and its dead troublemakers"
And other persons feelings are more important than yours?
I was thinking about this the other day - how sometimes it's appropriate or even incumbent upon you to put others' feelings before yours...and how other times you need to be selfish. Part of navigating through life is weighing each experience, learning when to exercise one or the other without feeling like shit.

OP, master this and you'll do fine.
Thank you.

Those that can be trusted can change their mind.
Part of the reason I always said YES was because I didn't want to hurt the other persons feelings.

I figured it out. I don't think you can do this on the mobile app.
